This is a follow-on from:  
[https://meta.discourse.org/t/spaces-in-html-md-conversion-from-email-turns-lines-into-code-blocks/84537](https://meta.discourse.org/t/spaces-in-html-md-conversion-from-email-turns-lines-into-code-blocks/84537)

Many people send in emails with only plain text versions (no HTML version). In many countries they start off each paragraph with indents (or five spaces).

Needless to say, all paragraphs got turned into code blocks in MarkDown.

The thing is, hardly never will my user send in a code-block. I do not run a programming forum.

Is there any way to turn OFF the four-space ==\> code block feature of MarkDown?
